Ms Geraldine McGahey:

Taking the last point regarding funding first, our concern regarding the loss of EU funding relates to the impact it is going to have on the provision of services to the voluntary and community sector and those who are disabled. Much of section 75 is concerned with equality grounds. Our commission in the North is funded by the administration there. Our sponsoring unit is the Executive Office in the Northern Ireland Assembly, while that of Ms Kilpatrick's is the Northern Ireland Office. Funding is a serious issue for all of us. Ms Kilpatrick might have some comments on the funding of the Northern Ireland Human Rights Commission, but I was not referring to our organisation being funded with moneys from Europe.
